Drescription

A nonnegotiable when it comes to cobbler? Always serve it warm from the oven. Once baked, allow the cobbler to cool just slightly (about 10 to 15 minutes) before spooning it into bowls and serving it with vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 cans (15-1/4 ounces each) apricot halves, drained
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons cold butter
  • 1/2 cup whole milk

Directions

  1. In a saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir in water until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 1 minute. Reduce heat. Add apricots and butter; heat through. Pour into a greased shallow 2-qt. baking dish.
  2. For topping, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl; cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in milk just until moistened. Spoon over hot apricot mixture. Bake at 400° until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the topping comes out clean, 30-35 minutes.

Marc Forgione s Salt Cod Tonnato with Crudite

This recipe, from chef Marc Forgione, is a twist on a classic Italian dip, tonnato—traditionally made with tuna, here made with salt cod, also known as bacalao. This dip is a great way to highlight the best vegetables that the farmers' market has to offer, whatever the season. In the spring, serve with asparagus and snap peas; in the summer, green beans and gem lettuces; in the fall, spicy radishes and carrots; in winter, bitter greens like radicchio and cauliflower are delicious. And don't forget crackers or toasted crusty bread for a little crunch.

Whole Wheat Banana & Cardamon Pancakes American Style

Yes, this is a "Pancake", but I often serve as a dessert or an afternoon snack. I haven't tried this for breakfast, but you can go ahead and give it a shot.. this is very easy, and can be made with any sweetener. There are a lot of substitutions suggested, so you can work with the combination that you like. Every time I see an almost ripe banana on my counter-top, I make this pancake. The original recipe is from my mom, but I have adapted it and named it "American Style".
